Unsigned absolute difference and accumulate long (top)
This instruction calculates the absolute difference between odd-numbered unsigned elements of the second source vector and corresponding elements of the first source vector, and destructively adds the results to the overlapping double-width elements of the addend vector. This instruction is unpredicated.

This instruction is a data-independent-time instruction as described in About PSTATE.DIT.
This instruction might be immediately preceded in program order by a MOVPRFX instruction. The MOVPRFX must conform to all of the following requirements, otherwise the behavior of the MOVPRFX and this instruction is CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE:
